Title: Re: [ccp4bb] Post-translational modification induced strcture
Collagen probably isn't a great example as hydroxylation of proline in collagen enhances the thermal stability of collagen, it doesn't really "induce" collagen structure, as unhydroxylated (pro-pro
Hi Miles -
I would say a good example of that phenomenon is collagen, where
hydroxylation of the prolyl residues alows the polypeptide to adopt
its helical conformation. In that case it is the fact there is an
electronegative substituent on the prolyl ring that biases it into a
particular conforma
Dear All -
Does anyone have some good examples where a post-translational modification has
induced local structure? I'm particularly thinking of structure induced by the
modification only and not something multi-step like a modification that
recruits a cofactor that induces structure.
